A dog saved a person from freezing to death

24-years old Denis was
freezing nearby concrete fence one cold November night. His dog Chupa was
staying with him only. Denis found this dog one year ago at Darnitsky railway
station.. Since that moment they have become undivided friends and the dog has
been following his homeless master.

Denis had an attack
that night, his left limbs were cramped and the young man fell down on concrete
plate. He was lying there for more than 6 hours. Chupa brought him some cartons
helping his master overcome frost. Furthermore, clever dog was trying to turn
attention of kind-hearted people to his master… Elena Polischuk, President of
the Fund “Social Partnership” became one of such unindifferent persons. She
settled Denis in her car and brought him to the day care “Stephania”. Chupa was
taken along with his master.

Denis looked like on
the picture above when he was brought to us. He is expected to have a difficult
process on his way back to society. He was found lice during medical
examination, so his day starts from warm tea
and disinfection chamber…

We will brush him up
all day long and place new photo. Follow our updates…

Well, as promised we

Meanwhile his true
friend Chupa is waiting outside the center. The dog is barking at everyone
entering the center, as if it is asking to help him get inside.

At breakfast Denis
told us how he came to Kyiv 2 years ago. He was living with his family in a
small town in Sumy region. He was training as mechanic, and once he fell aboard
with younger sister and promised her to go from home and better die on the
streets than return to live under same roof.

He moved to Kyiv, was
living, renting an apartment and beachcombing. And one day he fell asleep with
a cigarette… The young person was lucky to get off with only 30% of burned
skin. But he lost everything he had. He has been roaming since that… Denis has
attack regularly after this fire – he suffers from tremor, his left limbs are
cramped. His homeless friends gave him vodka to help Denis calm down.. So he
has been drinking 4 months.

We are brushing Denis
up in our center’s barbershop.

publications.

We brushed Denis up
and started medical examination

Denis has some health
problems, especially with hearts, unfortunately. Irregular heartbeat and
noises. This could be connected with attacks of disease.

The doctor recommends
the young person get back to normal life as soon as possible, because the
terrible year on the street influenced his health. He must stop drinking and
start work therapy. Denis promises to begin work as caretaker.

The young person spent
some time before dinner in our library. He used to be fond of history when
studying at school. So he thumbed a book “100 famous Ukrainians” and visited
our art-studio.

Denis stayed on the
streets for one year and he needs a course of social rehabilitation.
Experienced specialists will try to return Denis to normal life in society.

You can help too! If
you are able to offer Dennis a job – He will be really grateful.

We thank all employees
of our day care center “Stephania”. It is their daily work – to support people
who failed, give them second chance. And we also thank Elena Polischuk.
President of the Fund “Social Partnership” the person who brought Denis to the

If
a person is ready to start living new life – it is not so hard to do. One
should just really want this… And in this case an angel will appear and help
get back to normal life, just like it happened in Denis’s life.
